Why not NPR? PBS? CBC? Deutsche Welle? The BBC? LRT? MediaCorp? Al Jazeera? France Télévisions?
There's plenty of people with experience running public broadcasters on this planet. Use the opportunity to bring in someone with best practice experience from overseas.
And likewise, why not look at people who have digital media management experience? Especially given a growing percentage of the ABC audience engages through its website and iView, rather than its legacy networks.
Why not look for an internal candidate who's a woman? Or from a non-European background?
Why not a candidate in a related profession with transferable skills, such as film or television production? Or sports administration?
The AFL and NRL are basically broadcast and digital media organisations that run live events businesses. You don't think someone like Andrew Demetriou, David Gallop, or Gil McLachlan couldn't lead the ABC? Especially with strong 2ICs who know news and radio?
And given the ABC started as a radio business, why not someone from SCA or ARN?
Even if they wanted an outsider, there were options.
